Filter by:While the rate of inguinal hernia repair operations in England is 10 per 100,000 people. The rate in the United States is found to be 28 per 100,000 people. Today, the effectiveness between open repair and laparoscopic repair in inguinal hernia repair is still debated. Laparoscopic approach offers many advantages over open repair. Regional blocks have an important place in the multi-modal anesthesia approach applied to reduce postoperative pain. In this sense, the Transversus Abdominis Plane Block (TAPB) emerges as an effective regional anesthesia method that reduces postoperative pain. This method can be applied with the help of ultrasound or laparoscopy. The aim of this study is to compare the ultrasound-assisted TAPB application and Laparoscopy-assisted TAPB application in Total Extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) to reveal the effects of postoperative pain. A total of 60 patients will be included in the study; 30 of these patients will be injected with local anesthetic into the fascia between the transversus abdominis and internal oblique muscles with the help of ultrasound from the designated area (Before the operation starts, TAPB with 20 ml 0.25 % bupivacaine will be applied to the surgical side under ultrasonography); In the other 30 patients, local anesthetic injection will be made to the same area under laparoscopic direct vision. 50 mg Bupivacaine (0.25 % 20 ml bupivacaine solution) has been determined as the application dose and this amount will be applied in both groups. 10 cm visual analog scale (VAS) will be used in postoperative pain follow-up. 50 mg intravenous tramadol will be administered to patients with VAS > 4 and tramadol will be supplemented to 100 mg in patients with high pain levels after 30 minutes. Oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory will be given at the postoperative 8th hour. Patients whose pain persists despite current therapy will be given 25 mg of meperidine intravenously as a rescue analgesic. The doses of analgesic administered in the postoperative period and the hours of administration will be recorded
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women worldwide. (1) Breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy is indicated for the majority of patients with this type of cancer. (2) Postoperative pain is frequent in this population, with almost 50 % experiencing acute pain and 25-60 % subsequently live with chronic pain. (3-5) Today no golden standard for postoperative pain management regarding breast cancer surgeries exists, and there is definitely room for improvement. Especially considering the large population of women with breast cancer and consequences of acute and chronic pain, such as prolonged recovery and affected quality of life. (6,7) With the present study, we aim to optimise postoperative pain treatment and investigate the effect of a standardised multimodal postoperative analgesic regimen based on previous recommendations.

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a surgical tissue graft replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament, located in the knee, to restore its function after an injury. ACLR is used as the gold standard in coping with pain, deformity, and instability for the patients. The most important factors affecting the success of both surgery and postoperative rehabilitation programs are edema, joint movement limitation and pain around the knee in the early postoperative period. If these parameters are managed well in the postoperative period, the quality of life of the patient increases much earlier. In this respect, kinesio taping treatment, which is practical, comfortable, and safe for the patient, is one of the complementary treatment modalities with positive clinical results. No researchers have studied the effects of Sterile Kinesio Tape applied during ACL reconstruction on edema, pain and range of motion in immediate care postoperatively. The purpose of our study İS to assess effects of Sterile Kinesio Tape application on postoperative edema, pain and range of motion after ACLR within 72 hours. Thirty-seven patients who have undergone ACLR will be recruited to our study. Patients will be randomized into 2 groups; Group 1: Sterile Kinesio tape application, Group 2: Control group. All patients will be assessed for pain intensity (with Visual Analog Scale-VAS), edema (with tape measurement) and range of motion (with goniometric measurement-knee flexion/extension). Assessments will be done every day for 3 days (a total of 3 measurements). Group 1 will receive Sterile Kinesio Taping application within 72 hours applied with Sterile Web Cut Kinesio Tape without tension additional to standard during ACLR postoperative care. Group 2 will receive only standard postoperative care.
Patients were randomly allocated to either Tansversus group (T group) and general anesthesia (N group).Patient demographic data, preoperative medical status, left ventricular function, and operative data (total ischemic time, number of grafts) were recorded. The primary outcome of the study was Percentage of patients needed additional doses of morphine . The secondary outcomes included postoperative visual analogue pain scores performed after patient extubation for pain assessment at rest (0 = no pain, 10 = maximum unbearable pain) at time of extubation, 8h, 12 h,18 h and 24 hours postoperatively were recorded, when pain score >4, patients were given morphine 0.05 mg/kg administered by a physician who was blinded to the nature of the study, time needed for first rescue analgesic, postoperative blood pressure and heart rate were recorded immediately on admission then 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 and 24 hours postoperatively, in addition to extubation time, length of ICU stay, the incidence of complications related to the technique such as hemothorax or pneumothorax, arrhythmias, and local anesthetic toxicity were recorded. The end-point was difficult weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, major postoperative bleeding which required re-exploration or allergy to any agents needed for anesthesia. All complications were managed according to surgical and medical guidelines.
The study analysed direct levobupivacaine instillation in surgical wound and its effectiveness in postoperative pain control. Half participants received 0,5 % levobupivacaine and the other half received 0,9% saline solution
In this study, we aimed to compare ultrasound-guided sacral erector spinae plane block and dorsal penile block on postoperative analgesic effect in hypospadias surgery.
Postoperative pain is mediated by different mechanisms at multiple neural sites. Thus, multimodal analgesics can reduce the postoperative pain. Although Opioids are considered the analgesics of choice to treat moderate to severe pain, their use carries the risk of side effects and hyperalgesia. Multimodal analgesia can be achieved by combining different analgesics and different methods of administration, to provide better analgesia synergistically compared with conventional analgesia. Therefore,lower doses for each drug can be provided with fewer overall side-effects obtained from individual compounds. Recently, antidepressants such as duloxetine, a selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SSNRI), have accomplished pain relief in persistent and chronic pain as in fibromyalgia, postherpetic neuralgia, diabetic neuropathy, osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal pain. The analgesic effect of duloxetine is attributed to its ability to enhance both serotonin and norepinephrine neurotransmission in descending inhibitory pain pathways. Moreover, some studies have promoted its use to improve the quality of recovery after surgery and reduce the acute postoperative pain after knee replacement surgery , mastectomy , hysterectomy , and after spine surgery. In addition it can improve postoperative quality of recovery through mood improvement that can be helpful in the postoperative period. The main objective of the present study was to examine perioperativelythe analgesic efficacy with the combination of duloxetine and prgabalinon postoperative pain when given as part of a multimodal pain strategy in patients undergoing surgery on liosuction. In addition to evaluating the patient's satisfaction and the adverse effects related to the combination of both medications.
Postoperative pain control is important to reduce morbidity and mortality, and this becomes even more important after cesarean delivery. Severe postpartum pain is associated with chronic pain, and the mother faces a 2.5-fold increased risk of chronic pain and a 3-fold increased risk of postpartum depression compared to mild ones Postoperative pain management is more difficult in the postpartum period. Because the main analgesics used are opioids that are excreted from milk and the newborn may be exposed to the side effects of these drugs . Therefore, multimodal approach is recommended in pain management. Surgical wound infiltration (LWI) of local anesthetics is an important component of multimodal analgesia . Some of the pain from surgery is caused by an inflammatory response to the surgical incision; therefore, reducing this inflammation can provide a better analgesia and also minimize side effects . Ease of use and safety of intraperitoneal local anesthetics (IPLA) has been demonstrated in studies and has become a useful alternative to opioid-based analgesic regimens for the treatment of acute postoperative pain. Investigators aim is to compare the effectiveness of LWI and IPLA applications on postoperative analgesia in women undergoing elective cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia (SA). Investigators hypothesis, H0, was that there was no statistically significant difference between the three groups in the mean postoperative pain scores at the 24th hour during movement. H1 was a statistically significant difference between the mean postoperative pain scores at the 24th hour during the movement between the three groups. The primary aim of the study was pain scores during the postoperative 24th hour mobilization. Secondary outcome was total fentanyl consumption (µg) in the first postoperative 24 hours
The Lichtenstein technique for hernia repair is safe and simple, but the underlying mesh prosthesis has its setbacks, as it acts as a mechanical barrier5. The mesh does not provide mobile and the physiologically dynamic posterior wall. The most dangerous complication associated with the mesh prosthesis is its migration from the abdominal cavity's primary implantation site. The relatively knew technique developed by Dr. Desarda does not utilize the synthetic mesh rather it uses a strip of external oblique aponeurosis to strengthen the posterior wall. Our study has compared the two methods regarding various aspects.
The research will be carried out in order to test the effect of Intramuscular (IM) Diclofenac, administered as preemptive analgesic with minimal effective dose spinal anesthesia in perianal surgeries, on prolonging the time to first request for analgesic and lowering analgesic consumption. Investigators hypothesized that using IM Diclofenac in this surgery will postpone the time to first analgesic request and will decrease the consumption of post-operative analgesics. Our method includes dividing the patients into control and study groups and recording the first analgesic request and post-operative analgesic consumption after surgery and comparing the results.
